Re: What mp3 quality do you want?

This raises an interesting point. A high bitrate is of little use when the original source was of a lower quality. A recording from a good FM signal will benefit from a high rate; one from an old cassette recording from LW won't.

Personally I like to have as many episodes as possible on my MP3 player and then have it on shuffle so I get a random episode each time. So I prefer smaller files as that gives me more on my MP3 player.

Neither do I listen for JaM for the audio quality. Except where the quality significantly detracts from the programme, I prefer content over "quality of signal" every time. Music and speech have (IMHO) very different requirements here.
